Or did he just pose off of these ancient Gods/Goddess

Horus-Egypt 3000 BC-Born Dec 25th of a virgin mother Isis mary,his birth was accompanied by a star in the east which in turn 3 kings traveled to adore him.at the age of 12 he was a teacher at 30 he was baptized and started his ministry at 30.Horus had 12 deciples that he walked around with and preformed miracles..etc

ATTIS-Greece 1200 BC-:born of a virgin on dec 25th,crucified,dead for three days then resurrected.

KRISHNA-India 900 BC- Born of a virgin,with a star in the east signaling his coming,he preformed miracles with his deciples,and upon his death was resurected.

DIONYSUS-Greece-500 BC..Born of a virgin Dec 25th was a traveling teacher that preformed miracles such as turning water into wine.he was refered to as the king of kings the alpha omega and upon his death he was resurected

I could go on and on to include other such as MITHRA...So whats with the pattern was Jesus made up to correct Gods brutal ways in the OT

ok, yeah, i understand that they might represent ideals different from yours, but really? not one of those books promotes or encourages anything directly against Christianity. or, i suppose, that's my opinion anyway, and i guess you'res might be different, which is the point of this question anyway. none of those books claim to have even the smallest foundation of fact; they are believe it or not, all categorized as "fiction". as in, not true, as recognized byt he author, publisher, and general public. why are these different from any other fiction books? i'm mostly looking for the viewpoints of other Christians but i also welcome the viewpoints of others. please, no senseless bashing of either Christians or of the books if you have somehtign to say make it reasonable and support it

The other night my baby was sick. She would not sleep in her bed so I sat up in my bed holding her most of the night so she could sleep. I closed my eyes for what felt like a few seconds. Someone's face came to me over my left shoulder and softly said "you are a good mommy for staying up and holding your baby while she is sick". Then I opened my eyes and I did not feel like I had been asleep. I could not see the face clearly, but I felt so calm and was not afraid, like I knew who it was. Am I going crazy or has this happened to anyone else. It didn't feel like a dream....it felt so real.

There is so much anti-Catholicism in this section (coming from evangelicals, protestants, atheists, and pagans). Why is the Church hated so much? I hear all of these stupid, baseless rumors about Catholicism. Have people actually researched what is about? Some of the hate also comes from former Catholics which baffles me. Is acceptable to make fun of Catholics like it was acceptable to make fun of Jews 40 years ago.

I was raised Catholic but I no longer consider myself one. However, I still have a soft spot for the Church and I want to know what motivates people to hate what they don't know that well. Ignorance? Bigotry? Bad experiences?

Why does everyone hate us Americans so much? I dont understand, I mean I can understand if you dislike a certain american person for a certain reason, say if they did or said something to you, but why judge all of us by what one person did? I hear all the time "oh shes an American, she must be a obnoxious loud mouth!" or "ughh an American, I wonder what stupid remarks we are going to hear this time" etc etc. I just dont understand why we are so hated. It really isnt the best feeling in the world when you are looking on youtube or on yahoo answers and you come across several people stomping out your country like it was a burning bag of horse crap. I'm not trying to make anyone feel bad or blame anyone, but I do love my country and I will stick up for it. Please if you hate americans, or if you know why people hate us, please tell me!! I am just looking for a reasonable answer. Thanks!! :)

My friend told me that her son was complaining that his room was always so messy, but that he wasn't making the mess. His mother, (my friend's friend) was looking for her phone one day and she found it in her son's bedroom. When she looked at it there was this photo on it. Her son is the boys sleeping in the background. Urban legend? or do you think it could be true. I am a huge sceptic, but I have googled it and can't find it on the internet. I haven't seen it before. Anyone know what to think of this....The mom was so freaked out that she moved out of her apt. She says that thing took the picture of himself.

The other possibility is believe in God and when you die you would never have known the truth.

Ok so you know the famous saying "Honor thy Mother and thy Father" and "Love thy neighbor"? Well doesn't this part from the bible contradict that?

Luke 14:26-33

"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be my disciple.
